JUNGIAN PSYCHOANALYSIS · THE NETHERLANDS AND ONLINE
What emerges when we attend closely enough?
Sometimes life can no longer continue in its familiar form. A relationship changes, an old pattern returns, the body begins to protest, or a longing appears for something that cannot yet be named.
I offer Jungian psychoanalysis in Dutch and English, in person and online, with a particular focus on women moving through defining transitions in their lives.

When the old way no longer holds
People often seek analysis because something has become painful, repetitive or difficult to carry in the old way. This may happen around relationships, motherhood or an unfulfilled wish for a child, work, loss, changes in the body, or a growing sense that the life one has built no longer contains the whole of who one is.
The immediate difficulty matters. So does the deeper question it may be carrying: what has been protected, silenced or left unlived, and what is now asking for our attention?

A different way of listening
Jungian psychoanalysis makes room for what arises along the way. Rather than moving directly towards a predetermined solution, we stay with an experience long enough to understand what it protects, what it asks of us and what may be trying to develop through it. Body, imagination, feeling and thought all belong to this process.
We are layered and many-sided, shaped by personal experience as well as inherited and collective patterns. Dreams, images, relationships and recurring situations can bring these different layers into view, widening our understanding of ourselves and of the world in which our lives are embedded.

Working with women
I work particularly with women whose existing ways of living, relating or understanding themselves no longer hold. This may arise around motherhood, relationships, work, loss, bodily change or a transition that has disturbed an established identity.
Sandplay Therapy
When experience has not yet found words, Sandplay may complement Jungian analysis through image, symbol and the physical movement of the sand. It is offered to adults in person.
I am a Jungian psychotherapist and Sandplay therapist in training, working in Dutch and English. My approach has developed through more than fifteen years of study, practice and research across behavioural neuroscience, ecology and Jungian psychology. This allows me to work with clinical clarity while remaining open to the symbolic, creative and spiritual dimensions of the psyche.
I work with women and men, with a particular focus on women between thirty and sixty who are moving through defining changes in their lives.
Meet Suzanne Schreve
“After engaging in several forms of therapy, including treatment within mental health services, my work with Suzanne was the first to reach the depth I had been seeking. Her Jungian approach is complemented by clarity, attentiveness and genuine care.”
Beginning Jungian analysis
You do not need to arrive with a complete account of what is wrong. A brief introductory conversation offers space for your questions and allows us to consider whether working together would be suitable.
Sessions take place in Dutch or English, in Vorden, Zutphen or online.
